My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 176: Chapter 0176: Who Are You Really?_1
 

“You’re Ye Yuandong?” the Boss’s gaze fell upon him.

“I am Ye Yuandong.”

Ye Yuandong stood up straight, pointing at the three exceptional treasures in the display case, and said, “You can take the necklace and the diamond ring, but you cannot take the bracelet.”

Pff!

Old Second punched him hard in the stomach, the intense pain causing Ye Yuandong to double over.

“You stinky old man, you’re still bargaining with me at this time, believe it or not, I’ll blow your brains out with one shot?”

The gun in Old Second’s hand was pointed at his head.

Ye Yuandong was bent over in pain, and it took a good while before he could stand up straight again. He coughed once and said, “The Ocean’s Necklace and the South African diamond are royal items, with a combined market price of over ten billion, not to mention the other jewelry you’ve scavenged, which totals over twenty billion. That’s enough for you. This bracelet is very important to me, I only have this one request. If you agree, I can open the display case for you, but if you don’t, I will not open it.”

Old Second flipped the gun around and smashed it hard against Ye Yuandong’s head, splitting it open and bleeding.

“I’ll ask you one more time, what’s the password? Speak, or I’ll blast your head off.” Old Second loaded the bullet.

Blood streamed down from his forehead, obscuring Ye Yuandong’s vision.

“I just want the jade bracelet,” Ye Yuandong insisted.

The people below, frightened by the thug’s viciousness, all kept silent.

Some, upon witnessing such a brutal scene, couldn’t bear to look any longer, and turned their faces away.

“You dying old man, what’s the time now, and you’re still thinking about a jade bracelet? With so much stuff already robbed, would one less bracelet matter?”

Even Tang Ning, who had an issue with Ye Yuandong, couldn’t help but speak out.

“That bracelet must mean something to him; otherwise, he wouldn’t be fighting for his life to get it back,” Yang Xinyi said.

“The bracelet was bought by Dad at an overseas auction on the twentieth anniversary of his marriage to Mom. Mom said she would personally give it to me as a dowry when I got married. I never imagined she wouldn’t wait until that day and would be gone,” Ye Yangyang’s eyes blurred with tears.

“It seems that Ye Yuandong is not as heartless as the news from the outside world makes him appear,” Yang Xinyi murmured.

At that moment, a man lying on the ground with glasses looked around and whispered, “Who says Director Ye is heartless? He is the most infatuated rich man I’ve ever seen in my life. The news out there is all messy reports.”

“After Mrs. Ye died, Director Ye locked himself at home for two days and two nights without eating anything, turned off his mobile phone, and ignored everyone. The entire corporation was in disarray, and no one could find him.”

“Caught a vixen, yet still say he’s infatuated?” Tang Ning retorted.

“What do you, a young girl, understand?” The man with glasses looked around again, and seeing no danger, continued, “Nowadays, rich men, which one doesn’t have three or four lovers? Ye Yuandong having only one is already the fewest.”

Tang Ning tilted her head and thought for a moment, “That sounds reasonable. Like my brother-in-law, who knows how many he has?”

“It’s just his bad luck running into someone as sinister as Dong Xuan,” the man with glasses sighed.

“There’s not a good man among them,” Yang Xinyi looked at Ye Xiong with a resentful gaze.

On the scene, Old Second was about to continue the interrogation when the Boss stopped him, saying, “Enough, it’s just a bracelet. Not having it won’t affect us.”

He looked at his watch and said, “Ye Yuandong, you open the display case, we agree with you, we’ll only take the necklace and the diamond ring.”

Ye Yuandong hesitated for a moment before placing his hand on the display case’s combination lock and entering the password.

A faint mechanical sound was heard as one side of the display case opened up.

Old Second quickly reached in, took out the necklace and diamond ring from inside, and along with that, he also took out the jade bracelet.

“You promised not to take the bracelet,” Ye Yuandong exclaimed urgently.

“Go to hell!”

Old Second kicked him, flipping him over, and cursed, “You believed what I said?”

“Let’s go, quick,” the Boss ordered.

Ye Yuandong got up and grabbed Old Second’s leg, pleading, “You just promised me, you’d give me the bracelet.”

Old Second’s gun was pointed at Ye Yuandong’s head, about to pull the trigger, when suddenly he felt a surge of panic as if something terrifying had locked onto him.

Puzzled, he looked around but saw nothing.

“Let’s go, quick!” the Boss grabbed his hand, stopping him.

Only then did Old Second kick Ye Yuandong away, following the Boss towards the exit.

As the group prepared to leave, they suddenly found a young man standing at the door, blocking the path of a dozen people.

“Leave the jade bracelet.” Ye Xiong said coldly.

“Is this guy stupid or what?”

“Does he even know what he’s doing?”

“Take him out, and leave quickly.”

Boss said impatiently.

One of his subordinates raised his gun, ready to fire, but for some reason, his body suddenly went limp.

Only then did the others realize, his neck was impaled with a dagger the size of a finger.

At the same time, a shadow flickered before them.

For Ye Xiong, a distance of about six meters was too short.

Let alone six meters, even ten or twenty meters was not a distance for the Reaper.

A gray shadow flashed by,

putt putt putt.

The men in black all fell down, and apart from the Phantom Trio, a dozen heavily armed men had all been killed with a dagger to the throat.

“Be careful, he’s a master,” Old Second shouted.

He quickly raised his gun to shoot, but the other man’s gun was even faster.

A loud snap rang out, blowing his head off.

In just a few seconds, the infamously vicious Phantom Trio was down to only Boss and Old Third.

The reason they were still alive was that they didn’t have guns in their hands.

“Who the hell are you?”

Boss stared intently at the young man before him, taking a sharp breath of air.

In his lifetime, he had seen many experts, but never one as formidable as this.

“You don’t deserve to know,” Ye Xiong said, inching closer step by step.

Driven by instinct, Boss and Old Third retreated, moving back five or six meters before they stopped, eyes wide with extreme shock.

Ye Xiong walked over to Old Second, crouched down, took out a jade bracelet from the bag, held it in his hand, and wiped it with his clothes.

As for other pieces of jewelry, including the much more valuable Ocean’s Necklace and South African diamond mother, he didn’t even spare them a glance.

Just then, suddenly, a scream came from below.

Old Third had taken the opportunity, while he was bending down, to silently throw a flying dagger.

Just as the flying dagger was about to penetrate Ye Xiong’s body, his hand shot out like lightning and snatched the dagger out of the air.

Ye Xiong held the flying dagger in his hand, looked at it, and said coldly, “Daring to use a flying dagger with such paltry skills.”

Hair on his arms stood up as the airflow stirred, releasing his Inner Strength.

Whoosh!

Under the control of his Inner Strength, the dagger in his hand shot out.

Despite knowing that Ye Xiong would make a move, Old Third couldn’t dodge in time.

She looked down at her flat chest, found a bloody hole; the flying dagger, without losing any momentum, had passed through her body and embedded itself deep into a display cabinet’s base.

“Luo Xuan Force Flying Knife, how is that possible…” Old Third couldn’t finish her sentence before she fell to the ground, dead.

In just a few minutes, what had once been an invincible Phantom Organization was left with only Boss.

“In all of Huaxia, no more than ten people have your level of skill. Who are you?”

Boss’s gaze fixed on Ye Xiong’s young face, and a name, both familiar and terrifying, flashed through his mind.

Inside Huaxia, who else could possess such ability at such a young age?

“You’re the Reap…”

Before he could finish, a flying dagger was embedded in his chest.

Boss looked down at the dagger in his chest, a Mo Bing that was exclusively used by the Reaper, confirming his conjecture.

It’s just that he could no longer say it out loud.
